New service in the Libraries - scan to USB or email

Even as vast library resources continue to grow in an online
environment, sources available in physical books and periodicals remain
an important part of the research process. Yet some people would rather
not carry around photocopied papers.

New scanning stations in the Libraries provide a solution to this dilemma.

The Rutgers University Libraries are pleased to announce publicly
available scanning at four locations on the New Brunswick/Piscataway
campus - in the Alexander Library, Art Library, Kilmer Library, and the
Library of Science and Medicine. The John Cotton Dana Library in Newark
will soon be added as a fifth location.

These scanners provide ideal options for library patrons: sending
scanned files to either email or USB device, providing choice of black
and white or color images, and optionally enabling the ability to copy
and paste scanned text through optical character recognition. Rutgers
students and affiliates can use the scanning stations for free by
logging on with a NetID. Non-affiliated guests are charged at a rate of
10 cents per scan from a library copy card.

If you have any questions about our library scanning stations, please
